Glasses other than oakley?

Be careful about Polarization with Smith. They like making ChromaPop lens that are not polarized.
I have surfed & surfed trying to find The One from Smith & finally just wrote them off.

I did buy a set of Parallel 2 from a discount store for only $44, but I got them for their low-light non-polarized lens, called the Ignitor.

It comes with two sets of lenses & they are a quick-change item, due to the design:

My Rēvo loving friend recently bought Costa, only after accidentally getting a non-Polarized Prizm lens at Sunglass Hut. It cost him $150 to fix his mistake.

They are definitely Polarised.

Maui Ho'okipa Ultra finally arrived today.

Love them.....the clarity of this new Maui Jim "Ultra" lens is fantastic

nearly bought these this week, as I am hankering for that MauiRose, until I realized they are base-curve Four & not Eight:

I bought a pair of Maui Jim Onshore with the Maui Rose lense....

Was disappointed with the lense (how rosey....it wasn't)

If you want Rose.....check out the Serengeti Sedona lens.....they are fantastic. It's really viewing the world through "rose tinted lenses"

I keep believing the hype instead of my own eyes.
Back on 31 December I tried on several rose-tint at SunGlass Hut & even then I could see more rosiness from the Deep Water Oakley lens than the MauiRose.

This seems to be an integral thing for Maui Jim, to not over-exaggerate, whereas Oakley tend to really go for it with their Prizm lens.

The Tungsten lens is really something.

I have never come across anything like the Prizm Tungsten Polarised.....
It's bonkers! (in a brilliant way)

I had been considering buying a new set of 580P green-mirror lens for my tan Tuna Alley frames (with olive accents), but this was a better deal:

Just the lens is $66, before tax & shipping.

These Rēvo Swift were offered directly from Rēvo on a flash deal a week ago:


$110 after tax
I got a similar Wow factor as the Maui Jim, great construction, great Clarity (Nylon/Serilium+)

I would rather the Crux-N design, but I also prefer the fat temple-arms of the Swift.

but the colorways sometimes irk me, I would rather the Terra/Bronze lens in the transparent frame:

the lens I want^

but the frame I want comes with a lens I would never buy:

They are Nylon/Polyamide lens, so not cheaply replaced.

I've bought a few pair of REVO over the years.
Love them.


My Costa Cut with the Green Mirror 580P lense are on a plane I think......should be with me soon.

My favourite pair of REVO...

I really like my Annika 2 with the Drive lens, you should try their Drive lens, if you have not.

bought in a small shed-load of thrift-store Pugs today, with a mind to sell locally:
